SMCF supports the private fund-raising efforts of the various campus programs and departments by receiving, dispersing and investing private donations. In addition, undesignated annual gifts are used to initiate programs for the benefit of the students and faculty at SMC. These include scholarships, internships, faculty chairs and grants, Halls of Fame and matching funds for myriad campus endowment campaigns.
